Abstract

This study aims to determine the experiences of school heads in the Division of Panabo City on implementing the Child Protection Policy (CPP). An in-Depth Interview (IDI) and Focus Group Discussion (FGD) were conducted to confirm and validate the responses of the school heads. Findings revealed that school heads faced challenges such as the lack of adequate financial and human resources and the negative dispositions of students. In addressing such challenges, it was noted that school heads strictly implemented the policy’s provisions, sought the assistance of various stakeholders, and implemented strong communication efforts. It was then learned that an effective CPP implementation might only happen if school heads employ child-centered and policy-based decision making, establish positive relationships with stakeholders, and strengthen the school’s communication mechanisms. Overall, it is recommended that school heads enjoin stakeholders to participate in the decision-making and implementation of the policy, build relationships with parents, and launch school initiatives following the law, CPP program, and DepEd vision, mission, and core values.
